Johnny Esparza was taken into custody on suspicion of murder, aggravated robbery and engaging in organized criminal activity, the release states.

Esparaza is accused of being involved in the death of Parris Tipton, 20, on Feb. 24 near Glen Arbor Park in the 5800 block of Tanglewood Drive.

Esparza was indicted on the charges in June.

According to the indictment, Esparza is accused of threatening Espinoza with a firearm while he and Tipton were committing theft. The document states Esparza, Tipton and a third man conspired to commit aggravated robbery.

The murder charge stems from Esparza's alleged involvement in the robbery, which led to Tipton's death.
